Going into the game the New York Islanders were 12-8-0 on the road. The St Louis Blues were 10-11-2 at home. The game was looking like a good one to give the Isles their ninth win in ten games.
Yeah. Over the last ten games before taking on the Blues, the New York Islanders were 8-2-0. A win would make it 9-1-0 and make them one of the hottest teams in the league.
Or it could all just be a trap.
If the Isles could play even half the road game they did against the Toronto Maple Leafs, a win should be inevitable.
